Trask hires an agent, wants to try hand at broadcasting

Former Raiders chief executive officer Amy Trask has hired an agent and is looking to try her hand at broadcasting. Trask resigned from her post in Oakland in May, ending the tenure of one of the highest-ranking women in American professional sports.

“I’m eagerly embracing exciting opportunities while of course wishing the Raider Nation all the very best,” Trask said.

Trask said she is also looking into public speaking and writing opportunities.

She’s hired Mark Lepselter, who also represents former NFL vice president of officiating and current FOX analyst Mike Pereira and former players-turned analysts Ronde Barber and Donovan McNabb.

“Broadcasting is something that Amy is interested in pursuing in the next phase of her professional life,” Lepselter said. “She has an interesting and unique perspectve in the world of the NFL.”

Trask spent 25 seasons with the Raiders starting during their time in Los Angeles and continuing after the move to Oakland in 1995. She became CEO in 1997 and was one of late owner Al Davis’ most trusted advisers before his death in October 2011.
